Radiology Textbook Authored by Indiana University School of Medicine–Fort Wayne Faculty

Edward C. Weber, D.O., and Joel A. Vilensky, Ph.D., faculty members at Indiana University School of Medicine–Fort Wayne, have co-authored a textbook along with Alysa Fog, P.A.-C, published by F.A. Davis Company.

Practical Radiology A Symptom-Based Approach provides information for students as well as clinicians about radiologic images. A feature of this book is information boxes that appear throughout the chapters, which provide cost factors for imaging tests. Images for all patients from pediatric to geriatric are included.

Many radiology textbooks are already available for students and clinicians. This book differs from other textbooks as it emphasizes the ideal use of radiology images as clinical tools in a cost-effective manner.

Dr. Weber and Dr. Vilensky have co-authored two other books which compared anatomical radiology images to the famous illustrations of Frank Netter, M.D.
